[Flow] TYPO3 Flow Session Management

[Matthias Secker]

Thanks for your reply.

I don't think I ran into this bug because I use the version 2.1 so that 
should be fixed.
I know scope session classes are the prefered way but in tests even that 
fails, that's the reason why I tested the session framework on a low 
level base. Anyway, Flow will throw an exception if I do not use start() 
method on SessionInterface, I think that is necessary, but I don't know 
why it starts always a new session(ID)

I appreciate any helpful tips!
